Downloadable macro reference
SampleAllDevices
Performs a temperature conversion on all compatible devices.
The temperature can be read using the ReadTemperature macro.
Brefore calling ReadTemperature you need to use one of the Address macros.
Parameters
- BOOL WaitForCompletion
- 0=Dont Wait, 1=Block and Wait To Complete
Return value
- This call does not return a value
AddressSpecificDevice
Starts a temperature conversion on a specific device using a hex string identifier.
SerialNumber parameter should be 12 characters and contain the 48-bit Serial.
Parameters
- <- STRING SerialNumber
- 48-bit Serial Number e.g. "32DF4A3C1901"
- This parameter may be returned back to the caller
Return value
- This call does not return a value
AddressNextDevice
Scans for the next connected device with a matching family code.
Goes through the device list generated by the ScanBus macro.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
- This call does not return a value
GetSerialString
Gets the Serial String for the current addressed device.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
GetTemperature
Reads the temperature from the last sample on the selected device.
The selected device is set using the AddressNext or AddressSpecific macros.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
SampleAddressedDevice
Performs a temperature conversion on the current addressed device.
Requires one of the Address component macros to be called.
The temperature can be read using the ReadTemperature macro.
Parameters
- BOOL WaitForCompletion
- 0=Dont Wait, 1=Block and Wait To Complete
Return value
- This call does not return a value
Initialise
Configures each matching sensor on the bus with the specified conversion bits.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
- This call does not return a value
